Aloha
Cleveland/Brooklyn/Rochester/Washington DCIt is mind boggling to me how the members of Aloha can be spread out across multiple eastern states and remain such a remarkable collective. Some Echoes, out on Polyvinyl, is the band’s fifth album and it’s one of the very best 2006 has heard. What a sunny sound! One distinct thing I’ve always noticed about Aloha is their strong concentration on the xylophone. This is nicely showcased in the lead track, “Brace Your Face,” which very well may be my favorite song of the year.
